[Smnavven96]

Hey anyone guide me to find the delete button in v2 designer...that we usually see left bottom on v1.. (below the deselect(x) tool..and also in this version i couldn't able to find the tracking and kerning option in text menu

Hi, I think you'll find the answer to the delete button here

Delete button (trash can): 3-finger swipe down, or 1-finger long press in the workspace.

Tracking/Kerning: I'm unable to find them except within Text Styles. Something may be broken here.

Yes...but trash can on the screen like in v1 is somewhat convenient..

it would be great if someone makes a video about how Kerning/tracking works in this.. it's harder to find...

And the overall ui is good..but the selected buttons appears only a bit slightly darker than the unselected ones... Couldn't differentiate which one is selected...it would nice if selected buttons get highlighted in a blue or some other colour..

hi,

I think I may be on the right track here.

Kerning / Tracking are moved within the Text > Justification and Flow. There you can play with word and characters spacing. Names are changed to MINIMUM / DESIRED / MAXIMUM

 

Hope it helps.

Thanks. Those are somewhat similar functions, but different and not what is being discussed.

Actually i found it.. it is there on the top row you see  BOLD ITALICS UNDERLINE and CROSS..  B I U S > character > positioning

There you see those kerning and tracking option..

and in ipad 9th gen… V2 getting crash very often.. that too in very small file.. so i use V1 to finish those works..

will this be fixed anytime soon?

Sorry; I still don't see tracking or kerning there. Can you show a screenshot with them highlighted?

I also miss the delete icon from V1. If you clean up vector data created from 3D files, then there are hundreds of lines that have to be deleted. The V2 is no longer usable for this. Finally there is a cut tool, now there is no longer a reasonable delete function. Too bad.
